Our Pumpkin Patch

Well, not quite that big!
We'll need to plant our seeds earlier next year.
Last fall instead of ditching the slimy pumpkin seeds from the freshly carved pumpkins, we chose to dry them out for spring planting. Why not give it a whirl? Best choice ever! This has been such a rewarding project: from the planting, to the sign making, to the watering and weeding chores throughout summer, to the excitement of observing growth.
Pumpkin sighting!
